‘Raaz Reboot’ the fourth instalment of the Raaz franchise is anything but scary. Directed by Vikram Bhatt, this film is a not worth to be called a horror movie .
Cast: Emraan Hashmi, Kriti Kharbanda, Gaurav Arora
Director: Vikram Bhatt
Movie story:
The story centres around a banker Rehaan (Gaurav Arora) who just got a well-paying job in Romania and is in love with Shiana (Kriti Kharbanda). Meanwhile, Shiana breaks up with her boyfriend Aditya and settles with her husband in Romania where they hope to live a happy married life in their huge mansion.
The married couple is going through a tough time. Their relationship is strained and what could be a better timing than this for Aditya’s (Emraan Hashmi) entry.
Shaina gets possessed ten minutes down the film.
The local priest can’t do much about it. The ghost knows the priest’s past. It literally blackmails the cleric to leave the scene with a torrent of reminders about his tainted past with kids.
seeing the spirit literally ‘suck the life out’ of Rehaan’s life, Shiana seeks help from her old love Aditya to investigate the case .
The film’s ‘scary factor’ rests on the shoulders of an ugly ghost, who tries hard to scare the audience, but leaves everyone disappointed instead. The facial expressions of the ghost tend to have the opposite effect on the audience and unintentionally bring out more laughs than screams.
The music by Jeet Ganguly, Sangeet and Sidharthy Haldipur is melodious, especially the title track.

Summary
In short ‘Raaz Reboot’ isn’t a must watch this week, watch it only if you are a fan of the Raaz franchise.
Though the film has a few scary scenes, it ends up being a clichéd love story instead of a horror flick.

The fourth instalment of the Raaz franchise ‘Raaz Reboot’ is anything but scary. Directed by Vikram Bhatt, this film is a sloppy take on the horror genre. I am still trying to fathom what was going through Vikram Bhatt’s mind when he penned down this stale love triangle, with a lovesick ghost vying hard for some attention
